The Hurun rankings spotlight a sharp reality: of over 1,200 Chinese AI-related companies listed on A-share, Hong Kong, and U.S. stock markets, only 31 truly focus on artificial intelligence as their core business with valuations exceeding RMB 9.5 billion. According to Hurun’s analysis, companies with proprietary core technologies and strong application capabilities will ultimately dominate as AI transitions from a capital-driven concept into fundamental infrastructure.
As a leading provider of robotics and AI vision, Orbbec’s business model centers on full-stack 3D vision systems and proprietary chip development. The company supplies high-performance sensors and vision solutions to more than 3,000 customers globally—spanning robotics manufacturers, 3D scanning providers, biometrics firms, and developers worldwide. Its robot vision solutions command over 70% market share in both China’s service robotics sector and South Korea’s mobile robot 3D vision market.
Orbbec’s technological leadership is reflected in its strong 2025 performance. Orbbec posted RMB 714 million in revenue for the first three quarters of 2025, doubling year-over-year with a 103.5% surge. Net profit excluding non-recurring items hit RMB 68.57 million—a RMB 170 million swing from the prior year. As of January 19’s market close, Orbbec’s market capitalization stood at RMB 41.1 billion.
